Post election, the plan is . . 

We've learned a lot about political campaigns in Costa Mesa, and discussed some of the propaganda techniques in use. The election is over, so the effects of both propaganda and rational discourse are known.

The next question this blog will address, is how does city government work, and who is involved in making it work. We'll also post information about upcoming meetings, events, and plans of interest to Costa Mesa voters. There's so much to know. And much of what we'll discuss is specific to a situation; so it may work out differently next time. We'll look at why it worked that way, and we'll collect a little information about who affected what was done.

The posts will be approximately weekly, and more frequent when needed. The blog will help keep track of important meetings, hearings, and ceremonies to help keep everybody's calendar straight.

As always, comment and controversy are invited; it's possible that I'm misinformed sometimes and I'd like to learn the accurate version of what I think I know.
